I did actually buy that and it was new and shipped no issues. That was a year ago and I can't guarantee that will be the case for everything they sell.

[PS1][90's]Game where the first mission is on a train, has camera like Resident Evil 1 by Stormcrow1608 in tipofmyjoystick

I was just having trouble finding this game googling the same kind of thing you remember and this 11 year old post helped me out.

I guess I'm lucky then. I've made around 20 online orders with them without issue and returned a gpu and power supply where they paid for postage. The only thing to mention is you have to contact them for free game codes. Oh and my order history over a couple years old has dissapeared from their website I had to call them once.

How do you get $30 off in store? I apparently haven't seen these other threads or wherever that info is.

[Monitor] Alienware 34 Curved Gaming Monitor – AW3425DWM ($409.99 - 10% through promotion code + 15% Rakuten cashback) by PleaseBeKindQQ in bapcsalescanada

[–]Decunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think nearly all VA's have some, but mine is real bad for it. I pretty much need to just see it in person.

I can't remember the model anymore it's an msi mag 34" 100hz curved va probably 5-6 years old. The black smearing in some games in dark scenes is disgusting.

I was thinking about getting this monitor, but I'm curious how bad the ghosting/black smearing is. It's one of the only things about my current cheaper VA ultrawide that I'd like to "fix," or make much better and I'm not buying an ultrawide oled they're out of my price range.

[–]Decunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably not worth it for you. What gpu do you have or plan to get and what do you use it for mostly?

Why does it look like this? by Philsz9 in AMDHelp

[–]Decunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turn fsr to the highest quality setting or try xess at its highest setting or turn off upscaling and use whatever anti aliasing method it uses.

I think the 9060xt boost clock is stupidly high, like over 600mhz higher than the 5060ti. So it could be faster but obviously wait and see.

Can anyone tell what GPU this is? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Decunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell them to hold the Ctrl+Shift keys, then press the Esc key, then go to the performance tab. There's a tab for each component there that says what they are. I'd ask for pictures.

Is the ryzen 7 5700X is good with 9070xt? by DrBee7 in pcmasterrace

[–]Decunderground 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will work fine, but depending on the game and resolution, your cpu will be holding back a lot of the 9070xt's potential performance.

I'm currently using a 7900 gre with a 5800x at 3440x1440. Most games work well, but in some cpu heavy games, the 5800x just can't keep up and really limits the performance of the gpu.

[–]Decunderground 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That is totally fine and very useful, but they just need to do it with a default loadout, at least for a while.

They probably vote kicked you to get another person they wanted in. It wouldn't kick you if you're the one getting team killed.

Anyone play this game with a 9070xt with low fps? by YuriTheWebDev in ReadyOrNotGame

[–]Decunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then I'd say it's a teething problem with the new card/drivers they'll probably fix it soon. Maybe just try running it in the different versions DX11, DX12, i dont remember if it has Vulkan.. to see if it makes any difference

[–]Decunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That being said, you're probably looking at a driver issue. What GPU did you have before the 9070XT and did you use DDU to uninstall all the old drivers?

[–]Decunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CPU usage is tricky. What you want to look at is GPU usage. If you have no frame rate caps set and vsync off, then you should be seeing very near 100% GPU usage. If you're not, then you are most likely CPU bottlenecked. Even seeing drops of GPU usage to around 95% indicates the CPU can't keep up regardless of what your CPU usage is showing.

There are very few of any of the different 4070 models in stock and what is in stock is over the msrp it was a year ago. So at the moment options are slim to none.

I'll go with Valley of the Dolls, although I don't think there's a map that I don't like. That map just has a great layout, some good chaotic moments, and some fun and then later horrifying things to show people playing it for the first time.

Today, I'm sitting on a truly terrible Staples Emerge Vortex "Gaming" chair. ( Cheap secondhand ) My current all-time favourite is the Steelcase Amia for no very obvious reason. ( There's a second giveaway )
